炮火硝烟如何笑?——中国战争电影中的“癫狂喜剧”

How to Laugh in Fire and Smoke: “Demented Comedy” in the Chinese War Films

中国战争电影很早就有笑声,但很晚才产生了蕴含喜剧角度和情感状态的真正的喜剧。以喜剧性思维来表现战争的电影,是在上世纪90年代的冯小宁和张建亚手上完成的。在冯小宁的《举起手来》系列和张建亚的《绝境逢生》等作品中,一种表现抗战历史的电影新形态开始明确,它的基本特征是:民族主义的态度,发现差异、找到乖讹的审美视角,夸张漫画式的讽刺手法,癫狂的肢体动作。我们可以把它们叫作"癫狂喜剧"。"癫狂喜剧"为抗战题材的电影创作创立了一个喜剧类型。

Laugh has been existed in the Chinese war films for long, yet real comedies enriched with comic angle and emotional state only appeared much later. It was in the 1990s and in Feng Xiaoning＇ s and Zhang Jianya＇ s hands that those films showing war with comic thinking were completed. In films like Feng Xiaoning＇ s ＂Hands Up＂ series and Zhang Jianya＇ s ＂Narrow Escape＂, a new form of films about the history of China＇ s Resistance War Against Japanese Aggression began to be clear, whose basic characteristics are： nationalist attitude, aesthetic perspective that can find differences and incongruity, hyperbole cartoonish satire, and demented body movements. We could call those films ＂demented comedies＂ which have established as a comedy type for films with the theme of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression.
